G.SHDSL (thing)

G.SHDSL is an international standard for symmetric DSL developed by the ITU. G.SHDSL (also known as G.991.2) is used for sending and receiving high-speed symmetrical data streams over a pair of copper wires at rates between 192 kbps and 2.31 Mbps. G.SHDSL was developed to incorporate the features of other DSL technologies, such as ADSL and SDSL. It can also transport T1, E1, ISDN, ATM and IP signals. This is the first DSL technology to be developed from the ground up as an international standard.
